Story[]
Stacie and Peggy play with a flying disc in Ken's backyard. While touching Peggy, Stacie wishes for 1000 more flying discs so she never has to stop playing. At the selfie museum, Brooklyn tells Rocki it's cool to take selfies with friends. Rocki implies that she doesn't have any friends, but when Brooklyn asks her, Rocki pretends that she does. Trey visits the store to give Brooklyn invitations for her and Malibu to attend his housewarming party. He doesn't invite Rocki. Rocki asks Chloe and Ji-soo about friendship. She learns that in order to make friends, she must be nice and have people like her.
Ken feels exhausted after doing many activities with Malibu and Brooklyn. Even though he is tired, he agrees to have a movie marathon with Brooklyn and also help Malibu and Margaret test new features in the camper. Stacie tries to make more wishes but none of them work. Ken goes to his backyard to hide from Malibu and Brooklyn. He doesn't want to decline either of their invitations because he doesn't want to hurt their feelings. Ken hugs Peggy and wishes there was another Ken to help him be in two places at once, so another Ken magically appears.
Rocki visits Trey while the Reardons prepare for their party. She tries to befriend him so she can be invited. Trey lets Rocki carry some boxes, but she cannot enter his home without an invitation because she is a Glyph. When she tries to enter, a magic barrier stops her and she drops the boxes. Trey dislikes that she made a mess, so he doesn't invite her in. Meanwhile, Ken sends his clone to hang out with Brooklyn. Before he goes to help Malibu and Margaret, Ken asks Stacie to try and figure out how Peggy grants wishes. Peggy floats in the air and two glowing feathers fall off her. Stacie wonders if it means Peggy's wings are growing and if the feathers grant wishes.
Margaret, Malibu and Ken leave the city in the camper. Ken's lifeguard friend, Dan, asks Ken to cover his shift. Ken calls his clone and asks him to cover Dan's shift. Ken's clone feels like he can't say no. The clone sneaks off to ask Stacie if she's figured out how Peggy grants wishes. Stacie thinks that people have to touch where Peggy's wings would be in order for a wish to be granted, but she hasn't tried it because she doesn't know what to wish for. The clone touches Peggy's back and wishes for another clone. Stacie asks how the second clone can lifeguard when he is only 1 minute old, so one of the clone wishes for more clones, including one who knows how to lifeguard. Stacie phones Ken to tell him there are more clones, and Malibu overhears them talking.
At Trey's house, Rocki tries hard to befriend Trey by helping him a lot. Ken admits to Malibu that he finds it hard to balance hanging out with her and Brooklyn since the three of them became close friends during the summer. Ken loves hanging out with Brooklyn, but sometimes he just wants to be with Malibu. He feels conflicted because he doesn't want Brooklyn to feel left out. Malibu encourages Ken to be honest. Ken holds Malibu's hand and says he needs to learn how to say "no." Malibu pulls her hand away and changes the subject to the whereabouts of the clones. They return to the city and Malibu, Brooklyn and Ken find the clones at the beach. Ken lures them to his backyard with pizza.
Ken holds Peggy and wishes for the clones to disappear, but it doesn't work because it is not possible to "unwish" a wish. Stacie notices the flying discs disappearing on their own. Brooklyn says they can keep the clones busy until they disappear, but the clones overhear Trey announcing there is more pizza at his party. Ken and the others set up their own party in his backyard to keep the clones there. Malibu and Brooklyn go to the Reardon's party so he doesn't come looking for Brooklyn and see the clones. At Trey's house, Trey leaves Malibu and Brooklyn to go talk to Rocki. Brooklyn says she prefers when Trey isn't around. Trey tells Rocki that it is actually his parents' party, so they have to be the ones to invite her in. Rocki is surprised because she thought she and Trey had become friends. Trey says he isn't a good friend and thanks Rocki for helping before going back to the party.
Rocki sees the clones partying in Ken's backyard and uses magic to disguise herself as Ken. She has fun until all of the clones disappear. Stacie thinks there is still a clone left because of Rocki. Rocki eats lots of sushi at the party, which Ken finds strange because he hates sushi. Rocki admits she isn't Ken and gets rid of her disguise. She freezes everyone but Peggy with magic. Rocki approaches Peggy, but Peggy stomps and creates a blast of magic that repels Rocki. Everyone unfreezes and can't remember what happened. Brooklyn asks when Rocki got there. Rocki claims she just arrived and Malibu invites her to stay. Rocki is thankful and discreetly tells Peggy she will behave. After the party, Rocki asks Malibu, Brooklyn and Ken if they can hang out sometime, and Ken agrees. Rocki is happy she has friends and that she knows where to find Peggy.
